Kaṭṭaikūttu
Author: H.M. de Bruin
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900464492X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 439
Book Description
This book gives an insight into Kaṭṭaikkūttu, a living Tamil theatre tradition. Taking the perspective of performers as a starting point, it analyses how this theatre tradition has been able to adjust itself to changing conditions and challenges because of its inherent flexibility. The phenomenon of flexibility pervades both the formation and internal arrangements of theatre companies and the actual performances themselves. The first part of the book focuses on Kaṭṭaikkūttu in its historical and social context. It traces the theatre’s disengagement from its organic embedding in the social and ritual village organization and its transition towards a more autonomous and more professional regional theatre form during the last fifty to hundred years. This transformation was accompanied by processes of professionalization and commercialization, which had their impact on the practitioners and the performances. The second part of the book provides a detailed analysis of the working of oral Kaṭṭaikkūttu texts in performance. Through a flexible handling of the oral - verbal and musical - material within the boundaries of a relatively fixed framework underlying these texts, Kaṭṭaikkūttu performers try to fulfill to the best of their abilities the demands of sponsors, audiences and occasions.

The Dancer's Voice
Author: Rumya Sree Putcha
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 1478023767
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
In The Dancer’s Voice Rumya Sree Putcha theorizes how the Indian classical dancer performs the complex dynamics of transnational Indian womanhood. Putcha argues that the public persona of the Indian dancer has come to represent India in the global imagination—a representation that supports caste hierarchies and Hindu ethnonationalism, as well as white supremacist model minority narratives. Generations of Indian women have been encouraged to embody the archetype of the dancer, popularized through film cultures from the 1930s to the present. Through analyses of films, immigration and marriage laws, histories of caste and race, advertising campaigns, and her own family’s heirlooms, photographs, and memories, Putcha reveals how women’s citizenship is based on separating their voices from their bodies. In listening closely to and for the dancer’s voice, she offers a new way to understand the intersections of body, voice, performance, caste, race, gender, and nation.

Pages : 300
Book Description
“The Small World of a Maverick” is altogether of a different genre’ respecting the wise counsel of Swami Vivekananda, “He who says, ‘not me’, but ‘Thou’ the Lord fills his heart.” Though it is primarily an autobiography the “I” is consciously subdued to “i” with the emphasis more on “You” and “He.” The eleven episodes narrated in essence are real and the discerning readers would surely vouch for their authenticity as they too may have experienced similar incidents.
